FORMATION OF CONTRACT AND APPLICATION OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Subject to the provisions of this clause 2, any Order that has been placed by or on behalf of the Principal, and accepted by Emerge Outdoor by sending a Confirmation of Order, will constitute a contract incorporating these Terms and Conditions. No contract will be formed unless Emerge Outdoor sends a Confirmation of Order.
If there is any discrepancy between the information set out in the Confirmation of Order and the information set out in the Order, the Principal must notify Emerge Outdoor promptly, and in any event within three (3) Working Days following receipt of the Confirmation of Order, of the discrepancy. If the Principal sends such notice within this timeframe then no contract will be formed unless and until Emerge Outdoor issues a corrected Confirmation of Order. If the Principal does not send such notice within this timeframe then a contract will be deemed to have been formed on the basis of the Confirmation of Order (notwithstanding the discrepancy), and will only be amended if agreed in writing by Emerge Outdoor.
Once the Principal has sent a validly signed Order, such Order will only be revocable by the Principal before the Confirmation of Order is received by the Principal. Any purported revocation of the Order after the Principal has received a Confirmation of Order will be void. Any revocation of the Order must be made by giving written notice to Emerge Outdoor.
The Parties agree that an Agent may sign and/or submit an Order incorporating these Terms and Conditions where the Agent identifies, or has identified, the Principal under such Order. To the extent that any Order is sent to Emerge Outdoor without specifying the identity of the Principal, the parties agree that the person, firm or company sending the Order shall be the Principal.
The Principal shall be ultimately responsible for all matters connected with the Agreement (including without limitation the
payment of Fees). Where an Order has been placed through an Agent, Emerge Outdoor may deal with the Agent in all respects in connection with this Agreement as though it were dealing with the Principal. This means, without limitation, that:
any obligation of Emerge Outdoor to give the Principal notice, provide the Principal with draft Advertisement Copy, or to
provide any other thing to the Principal will be duly discharged by Emerge Outdoor giving or providing such notice, draft Advertisement Copy or other thing to the Agent; and
Emerge Outdoor may rely on or give any communication from or to the Agent as though it were a communication from or to the Principal.
In signing and/or submitting an Order the Agent (on its own behalf) warrants and represents that it is authorised to act as agent on behalf of the Principal in all respects in connection with this Agreement and indemnifies and will keep indemnified Emerge Outdoor for any losses (including any failure by the Principal to pay sums due under the Agreement) incurred by Emerge Outdoor as a result of the Agent not having such authority.
VARIATION OF TERMS AND FUTURE ORDERS
Any amendment to a Confirmed Order or the Terms and Conditions must be made in writing and signed by or on behalf of the Principal and Emerge Outdoor. For the avoidance of doubt, every Confirmed Order will be for a specified advertiser, and any to the advertiser must be agreed to in writing by Emerge Outdoor. Emerge Outdoor’s customer services department will have any amendments to the details set out in the Confirmed Order, but any changes to the Terms and Conditions must be approved in writing by a senior member of Emerge Outdoor legal team and a statutory director of Emerge Outdoor. The nominated by the Principal in any Order will have authority to agree any amendments.
Without prejudice to clause 25, no purchase order (other than the Order) or standard terms and conditions (other than the Terms and Conditions) issued, whether before or after formation of this Agreement, by or on behalf of the Principal will be binding on Emerge Outdoor or will vary this Agreement. This is the case even if a purchase order or standard terms and referred to in correspondence by Emerge Outdoor.
Emerge reserves the right to revise its standard terms and conditions from time to time, on the basis that any order or
agreement entered into will incorporate Emerge Outdoor standard terms and conditions at the relevant time. Accordingly, the Principal should ensure that they review the standard terms and conditions provided to the Principal (including these Terms and Conditions) prior to entering into any order or agreement with Emerge Emerge Outdoor will post any revised terms and conditions on Emerge Outdoor website The Principal’s placement of an order after any such revision has been made will be an acceptance by the Principal or the Agent (as appropriate) of the terms existing at the time such order is placed.
In the event Emerge agrees with the Principal to any amendment of the terms of the Agreement (whether regarding the Sites
or the Posting Period relating to any advertising campaign or otherwise) then the Principal will pay to Contractor an administration fee of two hundred pounds (£200).
DISPLAY OF ADVERTISEMENT COPY
Emerge Outdoor will, subject to these Terms and Conditions and unless otherwise agreed, procure that at least the agreed value of
Advertisement Copy is affixed or displayed at available Sites for the full Display Period. Emerge Outdoor may remove
Advertisement Copy in accordance with the relevant Removal Period(s), provided always that (unless otherwise agreed) Emerge Outdoor shall be entitled to display Advertisement Copy beyond the end or expiry date specified in the relevant Confirmed Order at no cost to the Principal.
The agreed value of Advertisement Copy will, on each day during the Display Period, be 95% of the value of Advertisement
Copy set out in the Confirmed Order. If a daily value of the Advertisement Copy is not set out in the Confirmed Order, this will be calculated as the total value for the Display Period divided by the number of days in the Display Period.
In calculating the value of Advertisement Copy displayed in connection with this Agreement (including for the purposes of calculating the value of any Overshow or any compensation based on a failure to display the agreed value of Advertisement Copy) the rates set out in the Confirmed Order (or the rates on which a price set out in the Confirmed Order has been
AND CONDITIONS
calculated) will be applied, but without taking account of any Rebate. Where the Confirmed Order identifies specific Sites at which the Advertisement Copy is to be displayed, the value of any Advertisement Copy displayed at different Sites than those identified will be calculated on the basis of rates determined using similar methodology to the methodology used to calculate the rates set out for the specific, named Sites (e.g. applying the same percentage reduction from Emerge Outdoor's standard rate card).
When the Principal is entitled under the Confirmed Order to a change of Advertisement Copy on display at a given Site
commencing on a stipulated date, Emerge Outdoor shall complete such change within the applicable Posting Period as if the stipulated date were the Start Date for a new campaign, provided Emerge Outdoor has received the relevant Advertisement Copy or Artwork in accordance with clause 5 below.
Emerge reserves the right to use its discretion in selecting which Advertisement Copy to display at which Sites and to substitute planned Sites for other Sites of a similar quality where the planned Sites are not available or Emerge Outdoor otherwise considers this is necessary or desirable. If no Sites of a similar quality are available, Emerge Outdoor shall, at its sole discretion, either: (a) refund the pro-rated part of the Fee that relates to the remaining Display Period for the Advertisement Copy that is not, or is no longer, displayed, in which case it will have no further obligation to display that Advertisement Copy; or (b) provide an Overshow to the Principal with an equivalent value to the value of the remaining Display Period for the Advertisement Copy that is not, or is no longer, displayed.
In addition, the Principal agrees that Emerge may re-format or make such minor alterations to Advertisement Copy as may in
Emerge Outdoor's reasonable opinion be necessary in order for Emerge to comply with the Landlord’s requirements or to ensure compatibility with Sites or in order to accommodate slight variations in inventory requirements of the same
Sites.
The Fees include the maintenance of display of Advertisement Copy at Sites in good condition (including where necessary
replacing Advertisement Copy) provided that, where Emerge Outdoor is not responsible for production of Advertisement Copy, Emerge Outdoor has been supplied with any necessary replacement Advertisement Copy requested by Emerge Outdoor from time to time in accordance with clause 5.
Emerge will only provide photographs of displayed Advertisement Copy at Sites (or any other form of posting report) if expressly agreed in the Confirmed Order. To the extent that Emerge Outdoor has agreed to provide posting reports, Emerge Outdoor will provide the same in Emerge Outdoor's customary form (including as to the nature and level of detail of any information included) and within Emerge Outdoor's customary timeframe for producing such reports.

To the extent that:
any Advertisement Copy delivered to Emerge Outdoor does not comply with all relevant Production Specifications; or
any Advertisement Copy or Artwork is not delivered in the specified electronic format or by the specified delivery method, then the Advertisement Copy or Artwork (as appropriate) will be deemed not to have been delivered in accordance with this clause 5. The Parties acknowledge that an approval or acceptance of Advertisement Copy or Artwork by Emerge Outdoor is an affirmation that the Advertisement Copy or Artwork meets the Production Specifications, and not that the Advertisement
EFFECTIVE 8th DECEMBER 2021 Copy or Artwork complies with the Advertising Standards or the warranties set out in clause 9.2.
If the Principal fails to deliver Advertisement Copy or Artwork in accordance with this clause 5, Emerge is not obliged to display
the non-compliant or undelivered Advertisement Copy but the Principal shall, nonetheless, be liable to pay the corresponding Fees in full. Upon delivery of the Advertisement Copy or Artwork, Emerge Outdoor will use reasonable endeavours to provide the Production Services and/or display the non-compliant or late Advertisement Copy but without any commitment to post such Advertisement Copy within the relevant Posting Period(s) or for the full Display Period and shall not be obliged to provide any posting reports. Emerge Outdoor may remove any such Advertisement Copy posted in accordance with the provisions of clause 4.1.
Any part delivery of the Advertisement Copy or Artwork, delivery in the incorrect format, or delivery not meeting the Production Specification or any of the provisions of this clause 5 shall be deemed to be no delivery for the purposes of this clause.

If Advertisement Copy is delivered to the premises of Emerge Outdoor without a campaign reference number noted on the delivery, then delivery will be deemed not to have been made.
Where Emerge is not undertaking Production Services, the Principal shall supply Emerge with an adequate amount of Advertisement Copy to complete the initial display plus an adequate number of spares. The minimum requirements for spare posters are stated on the Production Specifications (as appropriate)provided by Emerge Outdoor.
The Principal shall ensure that all Advertisement Copy and Artwork complies with the Copy Approval Guidelines. Emerge will not be obliged to display, and may remove or discontinue the display of, Advertisement Copy which does not comply with the Copy Approval Guidelines. If Emerge Outdoor does not display the Advertisement Copy because it does not comply with the Copy Approval Guidelines, the Principal will be obliged to pay any Fees in respect of any period during which the Advertisement Copy was not displayed except where:
the Principal is able to demonstrate to Emerge Outdoor's reasonable satisfaction that the Principal provided the Advertisement Copy and Artwork in good faith and at the time of providing the Advertisement Copy and Artwork (as applicable) the Principal was not aware that it did not comply;
the Advertisement Copy and Artwork does not breach any of the warranties in clause 9.2; and
the Principal has not breached any other obligations of this Agreement.
The Principal expressly permits Emerge to photograph the Advertising Copy on all Sites and use such photographs in any and all marketing materials.
DESIGN
If specified in the Confirmed Order and provided that Artwork is supplied to Emerge in accordance with clause 5, Emerge will undertake Design on the terms of this clause 6. Emerge warrants that it will undertake the Design using reasonable skill and care.
The Principal hereby grants Emerge a non-exclusive licence of all Intellectual Property Rights in and to the Artwork reasonably
required by Emerge to design Advertisement Copy and to perform its other obligations in the Agreement without infringing any third party’s rights. Without prejudice to clause 9.2, the Principal warrants to Emerge as a condition of the Agreement that the Principal has the right, capacity, power and authority to give the licence contained in this clause 6.2. The Principal shall indemnify and keep indemnified Emerge in relation to any losses, damages, costs, expenses (including legal fees and costs) incurred by Emerge in connection with a claim by a third party that the use of the Artwork as contemplated by this Agreement infringes that third party's rights.
Following receipt of the Artwork in accordance with clause 5, Emerge will provide the Principal with an electronic copy of the draft Advertisement Copy ("Draft Copy").
Upon receipt of the Draft Copy, the Principal shall promptly (and, in any case, in no more than three (3) Working Days) accept
or reject the Draft Copy by notice in writing to Emerge. Subject to clause 6.6, where the Principal rejects any Draft Copy (or revised Draft Copy), Emerge will endeavour to produce revised Draft Copy for approval by the Principal, and upon receipt of any such revised Draft Copy, the Principal shall within one (1) Working Day accept or reject the revised Draft Copy by notice in writing to Emerge. The Principal undertakes to provide Emerge with such information as Emerge may reasonably request to facilitate the performance by Emerge of its obligations in this clause 6.
Where Design is included or otherwise stated to be free of charge in respect of any booking, the Principal shall be entitled to the initial Draft Copy and no more than three (3) revised drafts of the same (provided that Emerge has complied with the warranty set out in clause 6.1). All further Design work undertaken by Emerge shall be charged to the
Principal at Emerge Outdoor's standard rate of £150 for each subsequent revised draft.
Emerge shall be under no obligation to provide revised Draft Copy to the extent that the Draft Copy or any revised Draft Copy provided by Emerge acting in good faith has not been approved by the Principal by the date which is three (3) Working Days before the Copy Deadline for the relevant advertising campaign.
To the extent that:
the Artwork is not provided in accordance with clause 5; or
by the date which is at least three (3) Working Days before the Copy Deadline, the Principal has not approved the Draft Copy or any revised Draft Copy in accordance with clause 6.4, then the Principal shall be deemed to have cancelled the relevant advertising campaign and the Principal shall pay the Fee for the relevant campaign in full. The Principal acknowledges that time is of the essence in the production and posting of Advertisement Copy and that this provision is no more than what is required to ensure that Advertisement Copy is ready for display in good time.
Any Draft Copy approved by the Principal shall be Advertisement Copy for the purposes of the Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Emerge shall be under no obligation to display any Draft Copy which the Principal has not approved in writing in accordance with this clause 6.
Any Intellectual Property Rights in Advertisement Copy created by Emerge for the Principal shall belong to Emerge. Emerge may grant the Principal a non-exclusive licence to use Emerge Outdoor's rights in the Advertisement Copy in consideration of a licence fee to be agreed between the Parties. For the avoidance of doubt, this licence fee does not relate to any third party Intellectual Property Rights in the Advertisement Copy or any Intellectual Property Rights in Advertisement Copy created by
the Principal. To the extent that Emerge has licensed in third party Intellectual Property Rights for the purpose of creating and displaying the Advertisement Copy (for instance, stock library images), the Principal would need to license these directly from the relevant third party(s).

will procure Printing. Emerge warrants that it will procure Printing using reasonable skill and care.

then on display.
Original invoices shall be sent to:
the Principal; or
where an Order has been submitted by an Agent in compliance with clause 2.4, to the Agent (or to such person as the Agent may nominate in the relevant Order, with copy invoices to the Agent), and any such invoice shall clearly identify the Principal for whom the Agent is acting, provided always that appointment of the Agent (and submission of the invoice to the Agent rather than the Principal) will not affect the Principal's obligation to pay Fees on the Due Date.
Emerge may for any reason (including without limitation as a result of a failure by the Principal to pay any fees which are due to Emerge under any agreement) by notice in writing to the Principal require that:
any future Orders placed by or on behalf of such Principal; and
any Orders already placed but in respect of which at least fifteen (15) Working Days remain from the date of the notice to the Start Date (both dates inclusive),
are paid at least ten (10) Working Days prior to the Start Date (or such longer time as Emerge in its absolute discretion may determine), and any payment terms so notified shall replace the payment terms set out in the Confirmed Order.
In respect of any Fees not received by Emerge by the Due Date ("Unpaid Fees"), the Principal will pay Emerge : (i) interest at a
CONDITIONS

Emerge shall be entitled but not obliged at any time or times without notice to the Principal to set off any liability of the Principal to Emerge against any liability of Emerge to the Principal (in either case howsoever arising and whether any such liability is present or future, liquidated or unliquidated, whether or not arising under this Agreement, and irrespective of the currency of its denomination) and may for such purpose convert or exchange any relevant currency at a reasonable rate determined by Emerge . Any exercise by Emerge of its rights under this clause shall be without prejudice to any other rights or remedies available to Emerge . The Principal shall not be entitled to, and shall not, set off any liability of Emerge to the Principal against any liability of the Principal to Emerge (in either case howsoever arising and whether any such liability is present or future, liquidated or unliquidated, whether or not arising under this Agreement, and irrespective of the currency of its denomination).
All sums payable under or pursuant to this Agreement are exclusive of VAT (except where expressly indicated otherwise). Accordingly, the payer of any such sum shall, subject to the presentation of a valid VAT invoice, pay such VAT being properly chargeable in addition to the sum otherwise due.
WARRANTIES AND INDEMNITY
Emerge accepts, subject to the Principal's compliance with its obligations under this Agreement, full responsibility for compliance with statutory and other legal requirements so far as concerns the maintenance of Sites and the right to use them
for displaying advertising.
The Principal warrants and undertakes that (including where Emerge is responsible for design and production of Advertisement Copy):
all Advertisement Copy will comply with the Advertising Standards, the Copy Approval Guidelines and any restrictions imposed by the Landlord relating to the relevant Sites made known to the Principal by Emerge prior to the delivery of such Advertisement Copy;
it will be responsible for obtaining and paying for all necessary licences and consents for the posting and/or displaying and/or reproduction of any Artwork or Advertisement Copy or copyright material contained in its Artwork or Advertisement Copy, or the appearance of any person in its Artwork or Advertisement Copy;
neither the Artwork nor the Advertisement Copy nor any part of either will infringe the copyright or other Intellectual Property Rights of, or defame, any person;
no Artwork or Advertisement Copy will contain any worm, virus, Trojan horse or other harmful content and will not enable unauthorised access to the Digital Advertisement System; and
it maintains adequate virus protection and security measures to protect its IT systems and any Artwork or Advertisement Copy provided or to be provided to Emerge ,
provided that, if Emerge is responsible for Design, the Principal will not be responsible for any infringement of any third party rights in any design that was added by Emerge unless Emerge indicates at the time of providing the Draft Copy that it has not procured the relevant rights.
The Principal will indemnify, and keep indemnified, Emerge (in respect of itself and its employees, directors,
subcontractors and agents) against all actions, proceedings, costs, damages, expenses, penalties, claims, demands and liability (including legal fees) incurred and arising from any breach by the Principal of the above warranties or any other term of the Agreement.
Emerge shall have the right to refuse to display or to continue to display any Advertisement Copy which does not, or which in Emerge Outdoor's reasonable opinion may not, comply in all respects with the Principal’s warranties and undertakings
detailed in clause 9.2 above or otherwise where the Principal has not complied with the terms of this Agreement. In such event Emerge shall not be liable to the Principal for any damage loss or expense whatsoever and in addition to any remedy and/or damages and/or loss that may be claimed by Emerge against the Principal, the Fees corresponding to display of such Advertisement Copy will be due in full notwithstanding that the Advertisement Copy has not been displayed.
In performing its obligations under the agreement, each Party shall comply with all applicable laws, statutes, and regulations
from time to time in force.
Save as expressly set out in this Agreement, Emerge excludes all warranties or conditions, whether express or implied by statute or otherwise, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
LIABILITY
Emerge shall not be liable for any damage to any Advertisement Copy or incorrect or non-display of any Advertisement Copyor non-illumination of a display or faulty moving displays if the defect is remedied within seven (7) Working Days after
receipt of notification. To the extent that the Principal is responsible for the production of Advertisement Copy and Emerge does not have sufficient replacement Advertisement Copy in stock to remedy the defects, this deadline will be extended until the date which is seven (7) Working Days after such stock is made available to Emerge .
The Parties acknowledge that, in circumstances in which Emerge no longer has any obligation to display Advertisement Copy (whether or not this is as a result of a breach by the Principal of the terms of this Agreement) it is reasonable for the Fee (or the relevant part of the Fee) to be payable as set out in this Agreement given Emerge Outdoor's administrative costs, cost of sales and design, the difficulty of filling relevant Sites with alternative advertising in short timescales, and the impracticality of calculating how much revenue is earned from any alternative advertising that may be displayed at the
relevant sites.
For the avoidance of doubt Emerge shall have no obligation to, and consequently no liability in respect of a failure to, display the agreed value of Advertisement Copy to the extent clauses 5.5, 5.9, 9.4, 11.3 or 20 (or any other clauses of the Agreement which permit Emerge not to display Advertisement Copy) apply, save as expressly set out in such clauses.
Emerge's liability to the Principal for a failure to display, as required by the Agreement, the agreed value of
Advertisement Copy on any day(s) during the Display Period of the relevant advertising campaign will be limited to an amount calculated in accordance with the following formula:
Limit for the relevant day = Per Day Fee x (1 – (Value Displayed / Agreed Value))
where:
"Agreed Value" means the agreed value of Advertisement Copy for the relevant day, as determined in accordance with clause 4.2;
"Per Day Fee" means the Fee payable for the relevant day (which will, unless a per day Fee is expressly set out in the Confirmed Order, be calculated as the total Fee payable divided by the number of days in the Display Period);
"Value Displayed" means the value of Advertisement Copy actually displayed on the relevant day, as calculated in accordance with clause 4.3.
For example, if on any day during the Display Period, the Per Day Fee is £10,000 and the Agreed Value is £9,500, but
Emerge only displays Advertisement Copy with a value of £2,375, the limit on liability for that day will be £7,500 (i.e.,
£10,000 x (1 – (£2,375/£9,500))).
Emerge may elect to satisfy any liability to the Principal by providing an Overshow of Advertisement Copy of equal value to such liability or, if agreed between the Parties, the display of different Advertisement Copy (including new Artwork). Such Overshow shall be determined by Emerge and may take place during or after the Display Period and may involve the display of additional Advertisement Copy (including new artwork) at substitute Sites and/or at additional Sites. Any such remedy will constitute a good discharge of Emerge Outdoor's liability.
Emerge Outdoor's liability in connection with this Agreement (whether in contract (by way of indemnity or otherwise), tort (inclundeinglgigence), misrepresentation, breach of statutory duty, restitution or otherwise) shall in no event exceed the amount of
the Fees payable under the Agreement.
Emerge shall not be liable to the Principal
any loss of business, loss of goodwill, loss of sales or loss of profit, including in each case any such loss arising in relation to third party contracts and in each case regardless of whether such loss is direct or indirect; or
any special, indirect or consequential loss or damage howsoever caused, in each case whether or not Emerge has been advised of the possibility of such loss.
Each claim, including any purely contingent claim, arising as a result of the breach by Emerge of its obligations under this Agreement ("Claim") shall be submitted (or in the case of any contingent claim, provisionally notified) to Emerge in writing within forty-five (45) days following the end of the period of display of the relevant Advertisement Copy with sufficient information to enable Emerge to consider the Claim. Emerge shall have no liability in respect of any Claim submitted or notified
after that date.
Nothing in this clause 10, or anywhere else in this Agreement, is intended to exclude or restrict a Party's remedies for any
fraud by the other Party or exclude or restrict any other rights, obligations or liability to the extent that they cannot by law be excluded or restricted.
Each provision in this clause 10 will be interpreted as being without prejudice to each other provision.
FORCE MAJEURE
The due performance of any Agreement is subject to suspension, variation or cancellation by Emerge (in whole or in part) owing to Force Majeure.
The Principal will remain obliged to pay the Fees notwithstanding any Force Majeure. For the first three (3) consecutive days
of any Force Majeure Emerge will have no liability for failure to display the Advertisement Copy, regardless of how long the Force Majeure ultimately lasts. If the Force Majeure continues for more than three (3) days Emerge will be liable to the Principal for the failure to display after such three (3) day period, and the liability for each day following such three (3) day period will be calculated and discharged in accordance with clauses 10.4 and 10.5, meaning that Emerge may satisfy its liability by (at its election) providing an Overshow or by paying the appropriate amount to the Principal. Otherwise Emerge will not have any other liability as a result of a suspension caused by a Force Majeure. If the Force Majeure continues for more than ten (10) consecutive days, either Party may terminate this Agreement in whole or in respect of all Sites that continue to be affected by the Force Majeure (e.g. it may terminate the Agreement only in respect of all Sites that have been specifically affected by the Force Majeure without terminating it for Sites that are not affected by the Force Majeure), provided that if one Party has served a notice to terminate for the part affected by the Force Majeure, the other Party may not subsequently serve a notice to terminate the Agreement in whole.
The Principal acknowledges that notwithstanding any sequence or proportion stated in the Confirmed Order, the display of Advertisement Copy on certain digital Sites is subject to interruption or obstruction. The Confirmed Order and the definition of Display Period shall be interpreted accordingly. In addition, the Principal acknowledges that the display of Advertisement Copy on Sites generally may be subject to interruption or obstruction as a result of unplanned or emergency works of the Landlord. If such interruption or obstruction continues for a period of more than five (5) days, Emerge :
may (at its sole discretion) terminate its obligation to display the affected Advertisement Copy; and
shall, whether or not it terminates its obligation to display the affected Advertisement Copy, either (at its sole discretion): (i) refund the pro-rated part of the Fee that relates to the affected duration, excluding the period of five (5) days, of the Display Period for the affected Advertisement Copy; or (ii) provide an Overshow to the Principal with an equivalent value to the value of the affected duration, excluding the period of five (5) days, of the Display Period for the affected Advertisement Copy.
Other than as set out in clause 11.2 and clause 11.3 Emerge shall not be liable for loss of or damage to or any adverse impact
on the display of any Advertisement Copy as a result of any Force Majeure.
Emerge will not be liable to the Principal for any vandalism. While Emerge will use reasonable endeavours to repair vandalised
Advertisement Copy where possible, the Principal shall be liable for the supply (or cost of supply) of any replacement
Advertisement Copy, except where Emerge is responsible for production of Advertisement Copy.
CANCELLATION AND TERMINATION
The Principal may cancel an advertising campaign under the Agreement by giving notice in writing to Emerge before the relevant Start Date, in which case the cancellation will be on the following basis:
in respect of a campaign for the display of Special Advertisements, only on the basis that the Principal shall pay the Fee in full; and
in respect of a campaign other than for the display of Special Advertisements:
provided that notice of cancellation is duly given at least ninety (90) days before the Start Date for the relevant campaign
provided that notice of cancellation is duly given less than ninety (90) days but at least seventy-five (75) days before the Start Date for the relevant campaign
provided that notice of cancellation is duly given less than seventy-five (75) days but at least sixty (60) days before the Start Date for the relevant campaign
provided that notice of cancellation is duly given less than sixty (60) days but at least forty-two (42) days before the Start Date for the relevant campaign
if notice of cancellation is duly given less than forty- two (42) days before the Start Date for the relevant campaign
: without payment of the Fee relating to the relevant campaign;
: on payment of a cancellation charge equal to: (1) fifteen percent (15%) of the Fee; plus (2) payment of all production fees (where costs have been incurred by Emerge );
: on payment of a cancellation charge equal to (1) thirty percent (30%) of the Fee; plus (2) payment of all production fees (where costs have been incurred by Emerge );
: on payment of a cancellation charge equal to (1) forty percent (40%) of the Fee; plus (2) payment of all production fees (where costs have been incurred by Emerge ); and
: only on the basis that the Principal shall pay the Fee in full.
The Principal may cancel an advertising campaign under the Agreement by giving written notice to Emerge on or after the relevant Start Date, but if it does so it must pay the Fee for such campaign in full unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Principal.
Where the Principal has cancelled a campaign or been deemed to have cancelled a campaign (whether under clause 12.1, clause 12.2 or otherwise), Emerge shall be entitled to sell the Sites relating to the cancelled campaigns to third parties irrespective of whether the Principal has complied with the payment obligations for cancellation.
Cancellation under clause 12.1 or clause 12.2 may only relate to a whole, not part, of an advertising campaign. References to the Fee under clause 12.1 and clause 12.2 mean the Fee before any Rebates have been applied and, where a Confirmed Order covers more than one advertising campaign, that part of the Fee that relates to the cancelled advertising campaign. For the avoidance of doubt a cancellation under clause 12.1 and clause 12.2 does not constitute a breach of this Agreement by the Principal, although a failure to pay the relevant cancellation charge will constitute a breach of this Agreement by the Principal that gives rise to a debt claim which can be brought by Emerge against the Principal.
Emerge may terminate the Agreement forthwith by notice in writing to the Principal if:
the Principal shall become bankrupt or commit an act of bankruptcy or make any assignment for the benefit of his creditors or enter into any arrangement with his creditors or, being a body corporate, shall become insolvent or if any petition for the winding up or administration of the Principal is presented or if any other step is taken for the purposes of the appointment of an administrator or an administrative receiver of the company or if any steps are taken or negotiations commenced by the company or by any of its creditors with a view to proposing any kind of composition, compromise or arrangement involving the Principal and its creditors (or any equivalent step is taken in any jurisdiction);
the Principal ceases or in Emerge Outdoor's reasonable opinion threatens to cease to carry on business;
if any monies to be paid by the Principal to Emerge shall be in arrears for fourteen (14) days;
if there has been a breach by the Principal of any terms of the Agreement; or
the circumstances described in clause 20 apply.
CONSEQUENCES OF TERMINATION
Following termination of the Agreement or cancellation of an advertising campaign the Principal will pay to Emerge
forthwith all outstanding Fees plus interest pursuant to clause 8.5 (pro-rated over the period from the date the amounts became due and payable until the date such amounts were received by Emerge ), plus any other amount payable under this Agreement.
Any termination of the Agreement and payment of Fees due shall be without prejudice to any other right of action or remedy
which Emerge may have under this Agreement or at law. 11
In the event of termination under clauses 12.5(a) or 12.5(b) Emerge may continue to display any Advertisement Copy and may enter into any agreements with third parties as Emerge considers appropriate to secure payment for continuing such display.
In the event of termination, non-display, removal or discontinuance, or any suspension, variation or cancellation by Emerge
in accordance with clause 20, Emerge shall be entitled to be paid by the Principal the full rate for the Sites in question up to and until the time at which the display is discontinued together with any other Fees due and owing by the Principal to Emerge shall not be liable to pay any damages losses or expenses to the Principal as a result or in respect of such termination, non-display, removal or discontinuance, or any suspension, variation or cancellation of advertising.

Notwithstanding the remainder of this clause 15, each Party shall comply with all applicable obligations imposed by, and all requirements under, the Data Protection Laws.
Without prejudice to the generality of clause 15.1, where either Party (the "Disclosing Party") or its employee or
representative discloses Personal Data to the other (the "Recipient") in connection with the operation of this Agreement, the Disclosing Party will ensure that it obtains all necessary consents from the Data Subject, or alternatively that it only discloses the Personal Data on the basis of some other valid ground provided for in the Data Protection Laws, such that the Personal Data it provides to the Recipient can be lawfully used or disclosed by the Recipient in the manner and for the purposes anticipated by this Agreement.
Although the Parties acknowledge that the Data Protection Laws ultimately determine status, the Parties are of the view that they shall each be controllers (as defined in the Data Protection Laws) in respect of Shared Personal Data that they receive pursuant to this Agreement.
Without prejudice to the Disclosing Party's obligations under clauses 15.2 and 15.5, the Parties shall ensure that they process and share the Shared Personal Data fairly and lawfully in accordance with the Data Protection Laws.

Having regard to the state of technological development and the cost of implementing such measures, each Party shall have in place appropriate technical and organisational security measures in order to:
prevent:
unauthorised or unlawful processing of the Shared Personal Data; and
the accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, the Shared Personal Data; and
ensure a level of security appropriate to:
the harm that might result from such unauthorised or unlawful processing or accidental loss, destruction or damage; and
the nature of the Shared Personal Data to be protected.
Each Party shall promptly notify the other Party of any personal data breach (as defined in GDPR) which affects, or may affect, Shared Personal Data obtained from that other Party and shall provide such additional information and assistance as the other Party may request in order to comply with Data Protection Laws.

after which time such copy shall be disposed of in such manner as Emerge shall decide. The Principal hereby grants Emerge a revocable non-exclusive licence of the Principal’s Intellectual Property Rights in such Artwork and Advertisement Copy for the purpose of giving effect to this clause.
NOTICES
Any notice under this Agreement shall be in writing and sent by recorded delivery post, courier or by-hand delivery to the registered address or such other address as notified to the other party from time to time. Notices to Emerge must be made out to the attention of the General Counsel.

On receiving notice of a renewal, Emerge will use reasonable endeavours to offer sufficient Sites so that the Principal may book the same numbers and types of Sites, and for the same duration, as the Principal booked for the relevant campaign in the original Confirmed Order. However, any renewal is strictly subject to Emerge and the Principal agreeing the commercial terms of the renewal campaign (including any amendments Emerge may require to the financial terms) and entering into a new agreement for the same. The renewal will only become binding on Emerge once a valid Order has been received by Emerge and Emerge has confirmed the same by way of a Confirmation of Order pursuant to the process setout inclause2.
